Top 5 Things I’m Loving Right Now

1. PB2 – One of the best foodie inventions ever. If you like peanut butter you have to try this. All natural and tastes great! Now, if only they would create an AB2 (almond butter)!

2. Planning – Setting goals for 2013. An ultra? A marathon? Another Hat Trick? Maybe a destination race? The possibilities are endless!

3. Experimenting with Recipes – I’ve had a laughable number of epic fails with creating my own recipes but spaghetti squash and zucchini noodles make it so easy. I’m experimenting with 2 italian dishes using each of these this weekend. Wish me luck!

4. The Vitamix – I’ve replaced my blender, food processor and juicer with this one kitchen tool. The best part about it is the clean up. Seriously quick and easy! Can you believe it even makes hot soup?

5. What I Learned At a Natural Form Clinic – This should have been at the top of my list! That’s me about to run barefoot. Running barefoot is not something I’m going to do on a regular basis but with what I learned at this clinic I’ve decided to take more of a natural approach to running. More details coming soon!

What are you loving lately? Have you tried PB2? Have you started thinking about goals for 2013? What can I do to top 12 in 2012?

I love pb2 and I use google calendar to plan my whole life! If it just poofed and went away I’d be screwed! Eric never puts anything on it and it makes me angry because hes like I told you about this and that and I”m like if its not on my calendar its not in my plans. haha. {sorry for the tangent (: }

I ♥ ♥ ♥ PB2! It is so good and easier to mix in recipes than normal PB. I am already planning for 2013, which will be my official first race season ever with the Miami Half Marathon on my 40th birthday and the Disney Princess Half in February. I’m excited yet terrified to be doing my first half marathons! 🙂

Yes they’re a little pricey but totally worth it! Plus, it’s a blender, food processor and juicer all in one with clean up that is amazingly easy. Whole Foods often has demos with a really great deal. That’s what finally sold me 🙂

Hi Jody, so the alternative is healthier? Does it taste coconutty? Not a fan of the coconut.

I have no interest in barefoot running but what I learned from just a few short runs made so much sense. It was a logic behind running form that had never been explained to me. My husband’s trail running group has a lot of Hoka fans!

i’ve never tried pb2, but i do love PB! i think we should at least do the 3 way at the pig! i’ve gotta see how my first full goes in march, but a 3 way sounds like a lot of fun and not all the pressure!

I have never tried the PB2! Does it taste like peanut butter? I have been using a lot of spaghetti squash too. Actually I finally bought a acorn squash (for the challenge) and it was delicious! I have also been making a lot of pumpkin items. I made a really good pumpkin curry last night! I am loving the winter squash family!
